Raising the Bar for People Practices: Helping All Health Organizations Become "Preferred Employers"
Perhaps the most rigorous model for improving people practices in hospitals is the Magnet Recognition Program. This was created by the American Nurses Association (ANA) in the 1980s, based on research that identified the organizational characteristics of hospitals that were successful at attracting and retaining nurses (ANA 2004). In 1993, the American Nurses Credentialing Centre (ANCC), an ANA affiliate, launched the Magnet Nursing Services Recognition Program for Excellence in Nursing Services.
